FOO BOOs

Foo Fighters are blasting the John McCain campaign for using the band's song "My Hero" at rallies without its permission. "It's frustrating and infuriating that someone who claims to speak for the American people would repeatedly show such little respect for creativity and intellectual property," the band said Wednesday. "The saddest thing about this is that 'My Hero' was written as a celebration of the common man and his extraordinary potential. To have it … used in a manner that perverts the original sentiment of the lyric tarnishes the song."
